She and husband Kevin, also 36, wanted to save money as they prepared for the added expense of becoming parents.

Since then, the IT consultant has won everything from Camp Bestival tickets and designer jewellery to lesson at a Michelin star cookery school worth almost £300.

She said: “I always enter loads of competitions in the run up to Christmas.

“It’s an expensive time of year, so any way to save money is great. I’ve won some brilliant presents, like a Swarovski jewellery set, a cookbook autographed by the Hairy Bikers, YSL perfume and some baby shoes, which I gave to my little nephew.”

Aggie, who devotes her commute to work to scrolling through Facebook on her phone, looking for and entering competitions, has now signed up for thousands of giveaways, tracking them on a spreadsheet, which she regularly updates.

She also blogs about wins, sharing tips with her 5,000-strong following.

But she still has fond memories of entering her first ever competition when she was pregnant.

Her mind on ways to save money, she went to a baby and toddler event at London Olympia, where she was handed scores of leaflets advertising competitions.

She said: “I spent the last week before giving birth filling in forms and entering all these giveaways. Right before I had Helena, I won my first prize – a gorgeous pram worth around £1,200. It was great timing.”

“I’m also really careful to only enter something I’d actually want to win. There’s just no point if you have no use for the prize. I prefer winning experiences over material things, as that’s more the type of thing I wouldn’t usually buy.”

Most recently, Aggie won a three-month gym membership, which comes with personal training and nutritional advice.

Previously, she whisked Kevin and Helena to Dorset-based music festival, Camp Bestival, after scoring free family tickets, as well as landing a class at Michelin-starred chef Michel Roux Jr’s London cookery school.

On top of comping, thrifty Aggie uses five different cash back apps, which work by reimbursing you with any money spent on items they list.

She explained: “Before I go shopping, I’ll always check my apps and see what offers are on. Then, all I have to do is buy it, take a photo of the receipt and I’ll get some money back.
